Retina-class displays have quickly been trickling down to the popular, smaller devices on the market, and one of the newest, coolest examples I’ve come across is Lenovo’s ThinkPad Helix. This enterprise-grade machine is comprised of an 11.6-inch slate packed with ultrabook internals and a highly functional keyboard dock.

The aforementioned slate uses an IPS-type LCD panel for amazing viewing angles and serves up 1920×1080 resolution, an impressive ratio considering the small 11.6-inch screen size. Its third-gen Intel Core i5 and i7 processors mean you get to run the full version of Windows 8 for full PC capabilities. A micro SSD (likely a full-performance SSD installed in the PCIe slot) is standard on all models as well, ensuring fast and smooth performance.

The slate itself has both front and rear cameras built-in, a single USB port, and Mini DisplayPort output to keep things slim and light. The keyboard dock, which is included on all models, not only gives you a full-size keyboard with the ThinkPad TrackPoint pointing stick, but adds two USB 3.0 ports, another Mini DisplayPort video output, and has a built-in battery that raises the runtime from 6 to 10 hours.

Slim, powerful, portable, and built around a gorgeous screen. A lower price tag might be nice, given these models normally start at nearly $1,700. This new model just got its first-ever discount and you can snag one starting at $1,511.10 with free shipping.
